 Really nice campsite within the Forest in a lovely location. The staff in the reception were so friendly and really made you feel welcome upon arrival and during the visit. The site has a security barrier for extra safety of your vehicles.
The camp site is well thought out and there are plenty of pitches but you do get adequate space between pitches for privacy.
The shower/toiler/laundry block was very good and heated and the facilities here are very good.
There is a shop that stocks basic items and holds lots of info on the local tourist attractions etc.
You are able to cycle/walk into Wareham but we did not do this due to lack of time but would like to do this on our next visit to this site.
Overall a great site and would recommend to anyone visiting this area.

WOW !. Just come back from a fortnight at this site and cant think of any other words to sum it up. Stayed on one of the Fully services pitches which were well laid out and planned, bins emptied every day by smiling faces,nice sized pitches and all services running smoothly. The whole of the site is well thought out, with nature trail walks,spotless facilities,well stocked shop with friendly staff who couldn't do enough for you. If you had a question and they didn't know the answer they quickly went on line to find it for you and always had a smile. It sits closely to the Sika Cycle Trail which is 7 miles round route through the forest, again very enjoyable. If you are straying further afield then check out the trains which run from Wareham itself, as we found them to be reasonably priced and frequent running as opposed to the dreadful car parks charges in some of the larger towns. All in all an excellent site, WELL DONE. Totally recommend it.

My son & I have just returned from a four night stay at Wareham Forest Tourist Park where we had a fantastic time!
We found the staff to be be extremely welcoming and helpful, the shop was well stocked and we particularly enjoyed fresh croissants every morning!
The shower/washing up/laundry facilities were immaculately clean with plenty of hot water and we didn't have to queue once!
We pitched in the Woodland section of the park close to open grass area which was ideal for my son to be able to make new friends and play safely.
The site operates a strict no noise rule between 11pm and 7am which was great during our first 3 nights, peaceful and a good night sleep was had by both of us. However, new arrivals on the last night chose not to observe this rule and were still making a lot of noise until midnight! Not good! They then had the gawl the next morning at 7.50am to ssshhhhh my son and his friend for laughing a little to loudly.
Access to the rest of the forest was right on our doorstep but unfortunately we ran out of time to be able to explore it fully.
Local attractions visited included Monkey World, Tank Museum and Osmington Mills, all within easy reach by car.
We highly recommend Wareham Forest Tourist Park and will definitely return for a longer stay in the future.

Picked the site based on the AA award it had won and wasn't disappointed. It's a large-ish site, but it's well designed & didn't feel too big. Standards were generally very high & it's all well maintained and clean.
My kids loved the swimming pool & playing in the woods nearby.
We were there in late August, about the driest time of the year and I can see that the camping areas might be prone to getting a bit muddy. However overall we had a great time & are likely to return.

This was our second visit to the site, the first 2 years ago and it rained for most of the week so we thought it could never be as bad, we were wrong. It rained again, a lot more this time in a short space of time. Due to this deluge there was plenty of flooding in places. Some campers went home early and some had to pack up due to flooded tents.
I agree with some of the comments regarding the gravel, very noisy when visiting the toilets at night and the sandpit also stained my children's clothes. Please change to child/parent friendly sand.
The days that were dry and sunny were spent in the pool which was heated and had plenty of seating for parents. The park and field provided plenty of space for cricket and football.
The shower/toilet cubicles were always well maintained and hot showers at any time of the day. My children particularly loved the freshly baked croissants in the morning. The staff were pleasant and helpful.
We would definitely re-visit if we were guaranteed good weather. Any rainfall due I'm afraid we would stay at home.

Just returned from a fantastic stay for 10 nights. Only disappointment we did nt book for longer. Facilities were excellent and very clean showers best ever. Staff were very friendly and create a very relaxed atmosphere to enjoy your holiday. Surrounding area is lovely and there is a lot to do within 10 miles of the site as well. Pool was excellent if a little cold for dads! Lots for kids to do although need to mend see saw. Thoroughly enjoyable stay, will probably return next year.

Stayed in this site over the first May Bank Holiday weekend as a group of six adults. The tent area is quite a distance from the toilet blocks however this didn't cause us any problems,except if you need to go during the night!
The wardens patrol at night to ensure that you are quite after 10:30 and then came around again at 11:00 just to be sure.
The facilities were always clean and we did not have to wait for showers. The site is barrier controlled and each car is given a sepate code. The swimming pool does not open until the end of May.
The only negative that I have about the whole site is that none of the staff were very friendly but maybe we caught them on an off weekend.

Went here for 4 nights and wish we could have stayed for longer. Very nice site, well set out and spacious pitches. Well stocked shop and all the staff were very friendly. The toilets and showers were excellent and cleaned regularly. The site is about 4 miles from the nearest town but is set a the middle of the forest. There is also an outdoor pool on site but it was a bit chilly for that when we were there. We will definitely go back in the future and would recommend this site to anyone.

Just come back from 4 days at Wareham Forest Campsite. Very impressive surroundings and the access to the forest was a definite plus. However, it is a very large campsite and therefore lots of cars coming and going all the time. Also the loo/shower block was not up to the standard in my opinion too many campers and not enough cleaning!). Very nice open air pool though and there is lots to do in the surrounding area.

The site is in a great location and has good facilities. Two toilet blocks - clean with nice hot showers. Swimming pool - water was very cold though. Also has a small shop with the usual food items plus camping and caravanning stuff you may need.
Childrens play area was large and nice - sand in the play area was more like builders sand than children's play sand. Daughter didn't seem to mind though and was happily playing in it.
The site is really more of a caravan site with marked out bays for the units. The tent area consists of a wooded area ( where we pitched) and a more open field. The field got a bit crowded with tents. I would have found the site a bit crowded if we hadn't pitched in the wooded area. We had loads of space there though and seemed very secluded from the rest of the site.
The wooded area did not have EHU.
The location is good for visiting the beach at Poole and Bournemouth is only about 30mins drive away as well. There are no shops or pubs within walking distance (apart from site shop) but there is a great bike trail which can be accessed from the site.
The site was expensive - they charge for the tent plus an amount for every person. Worked out to almost £30 per night for just the three of us.

Just got back from our third visit to Wareham Forest in as many years.
Once again we had a wonderful time, even though it rained for the first 3 days. Drainage on the site was good and the one small muddy area was immediately roped off by the staff.
The site is immaculate, you can see why it has 5 roses/flags. The landscaping is well tended to and everywhere is kept spotlessly tidy. We had a look around other sites in the surrounding area but none were a patch on this one.
Showers and toilets are spotless, cleaned regularly and they have a bucket and mop with disinfectant water by the showers so you can give your cubicle the once over yourself so make sure it's clean.
The pool and patio area is lovely but if I could complain about one thing, it would be the water temperature, it's been quite cold every year we've been!
Shop is well stocked and in the summer months they bake fresh croissants and baguettes every morning.
Security is good too, you are given a unique password to enter the site so unwanted visitors are kept out.
Highly recommend, we will be back!

Had another great time here 10 days and it is still not long enough, site is as always clean,tidy and kept in great condition. Toilets clean and if timed right not to busy for showers, good thing there is 2 large toilet/shower blocks. Staff friendly and will stop and have a chat and answer any questions. We enjoy the quietness of the park, glad to hear they won the regional award from AA again they deserve it.

Stayed for a week at Easter. Must say we really enjoyed this site (booked to go back next year), good size pitches, plenty of water and waste water points.
Children's area - not that many swings etc but ok and safe. A huge playing field for the children to play in. Good size swimming pool, but not open due to out of season. Children's indoor play area.
Toilets, showers, etc. All of good clean standard, the usual basic blocks etc. Never to full to use.
Roads within the camp site are all shingle stones, well marked out with good lighting.
Security is very good, a pin code in needed to obtain entry and exit off the site via a barrier. Keeps unwanted visitors out!
The best part of this site was the area surrounding it, you could walk for hours and hours, we seen a number of deers, rabbits and a lot of other wide life.
Dogs are very welcome at the site, numerous dog walks, short or long.
Wi-fi was purchased but we could not get a signal even though we were advised we could. One to watch!

Just back from an excellent weekend at a really great site.
Nicely set out and even though the site was full we never had to wait for showers or washing up facilities.
Noise controlled strictly after 11 and no naked flames after 10.30 monitored every evening.
Very friendly staff in every area and we really enjoyed our stay.
